A 94-year-old southeast Houston great-grandmother is proving that you're never too old to lift weights.

"It was totally different from anything that I've ever done," laughed Jean Gaines.

Gaines is a Houston Texans season ticket holder. But at the start of last season, she began worrying about falling while attending games.

So, her doctor recommended the Memorial Hermann IRONMAN Performance Lab.

"If you know her at all, it doesn't take much to get her motivated," said Chris Juneau, physical therapist with Memorial Hermann IRONMAN Sports Medicine Institute. "And once she's motivated, get out of the way. It's getting done, whether you want to or not."

Gaines has two children, three grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren.

Working with weights helps her play with all of them, especially the youngest.
